Wednesday, July 26: Riding from New York

Well, I woke up at the hotel room after good but not enough 

sleep adventure. The bed was very comfortable. I decided to go to that deli that was six minutes away. Raven order it through GrubHub and get ripped off. 

I asked someone else if they wanted to get it ordered but they never answered so I went ahead and got my Egg sandwich. I just wanted something simple. It was very good 

and filling. I also got a coffee. It’s a New York thing I suppose. Anyway

, I went back signed out of the room and they added another $35 charge

 for some kind of seed at the city imposes. Well I would expect this New York. I ended up taking the subway, the wrong way from one stop and then I just 

bounce back and went back to Brooklyn and picked up Heather‘s mother.  I said 

goodbye to Heather sister and husband and we had it off. The ride was

 smooth except when I got to the turnpike, I was too far over to go on the right hand lane so I ended up having to go north and got stuck in Elizabeth New Jersey
trying to get back but that only killed 15 minutes so I ended up 

 riding pretty smoothly then when I got back to her mothers place, she treated me to a 

sandwich and that was nice. She got the sandwich at 

Wawa. I just heard that Sinéad O’Connor has died at age 56. She was very 
depressed about a 17 year old son killing himself earlier this year I think. Anyhow, I went to get gas before going over to Ardmore house and the one gas


 station didn’t have gas and I had to turn around and get another thing of gas and another station. So 
I succeeded in that we ended up going to the Y because it was too hot and the air was too dirty for a walk. That wire is really well appointed that’s for sure. And then we had dinner and watched a movie.

SONY Sucks!!!

USB B to A plug adapter connecting a beige USB...Image via Wikipedia
Hi. I lost my USB chord for my Sony Cyber-Shot W-220 camera and my charger for my Sanyo cellphone. Here is what happened next. I called CREDO Mobile for a replacement. The nice woman on the other line said it would cost X but said that I could go to Wal-Mart or a Sprint store and get a replacement. Well, sure enough the next day I went to Wal-Mart and found a generic replacement and I was made whole. When I tried to get my USB chord replaced, I thought I could just drop by the Best Buy. I bought the camera last October and figured that it would be easy. Well, I was just flat out WRONG!!  I tried to go online at www.sonystyle.com and  they just listed the accessories randomly and there was no way in HELL I was going to find it. I gave up and called Sony customer service. The man had me read the serial number and I almost went blind trying to read it.  First off the part is over $40 bucks and I have to wait "6-10 business" days for it.  Of course I could have opted for the rush service but that would have cost 12 bucks more!!
Is it me or is there something wrong here?? Why can't I get my part at an electronics store and find a generic USB adapter?? Umm nice business model SONY. You suck!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, guess I will have to borrow Carolyne's camera to get any photos for the next 6 to 10 business days..
